Today we’re transforming what is very likely my favorite food on the planet, gooey decadent cinnamon buns, into a smoothie. And a healthy smoothie, no less.

The Smoothie Ingredients
Now this smoothie has some seriously simple yet important components. Let’s talk about ‘em. The frozen banana is our base. It creates a frozen, creamy foundation that’s so much more satisfying than if we were to use ice as a base. We’re throwing in instant or rolled oats for a touch of nuttiness and to thicken it up, and also to replicate the taste of the cinnamon bun dough. Greek yogurt packs a punch of protein while combing with the vanilla and brown sugar to give the taste of the icing. And finally, we’ll drizzle it with a honey/cinnamon combo for a healthy dose pizazz.

I hope you enjoy this cinnamon roll smoothie!

The recipes on this blog are tested with a conventional gas oven and gas stovetop. It's important to note that some ovens, especially as they age, can cook and bake inconsistently. Using an inexpensive oven thermometer can assure you that your oven is truly heating to the proper temperature. If you use a toaster oven or countertop oven, please keep in mind that they may not distribute heat the same as a conventional full sized oven and you may need to adjust your cooking/baking times. In the case of recipes made with a pressure cooker, air fryer, slow cooker, or other appliance, a link to the appliances we use is listed within each respective recipe. For baking recipes where measurements are given by weight, please note that results may not be the same if cups are used instead, and we can’t guarantee success with that method.

What can be used in place of the banana
Amanda Davis says
e haven’t tested it, but you could try mango, pineapple or avacado.
Shalena says
I left out the brown sugar since I am a weight watcher, but it was definitely missing. Tasted like watery flour. Had it as an early breakfast. I used a regular banana, since I had. Since the smoothie wasn’t cold, I added ice.
